I agree. The SC rails & cars do. The ts & td cars are just bracket racing as well, make them drive them back.

So Ed, why do you have such a hard on for bracket cars? This isn't the first time I have read your post about "just bracket racing". I have to believe there is a bottle of shoe polish in your car also. Lighten up a bit, we are all racing for the thrill of victory, our moment on the big stage.

Charlie, I believe I said they are just bracket racing too. Like the rest the rest of us.
And I do hate this shoe polish bracket crap. I liked running off national records better. Meant something to be faster.

Well Ed, I look at it this way. You can win from the bottom of the sheet same as you can win from the top. That said, winning on Sunday for the big trophy is a much better feeling than winning the little trophy on Friday.
Have a great season, hope to see your picture on the cover of the Rolling Stone, aka, National Dragster.

Your right Charlie. They have dumbed it down to where you don't have to know how to make one run. Don't have to work at it and spend time testing to get faster, with these way too soft indexes. If I was running things, I would knock at least six tenths off them. Certainly not performance based any longer.

Hate running behind those people. They not only track water during their burnout from the water box almost to where you stage, around here they stop side by side on the return road, blocking it visiting and discussing their runs, while waiting on their golf carts to show up.
I just can't wait.

Hopefully a higher up can address these concerns.

never understood why they cant just drive up to the lanes and drive back why is a tow vehicle needed there bracket cars not nitro or pro stock that need to be towed back to the pits but I am happy they are getting a shot at the Nat Championship now Super Street needs to get on board !

Alot of the TS cars are capable of prostock et's but I think the answer to what you're asking doglover is they use them because they're allowed to, I wonder how many of the really fast super stock guys would use them if allowed.

James, they need nitrous to do it. They bracket race like the rest of us. Not exactly on the same level as Pro Stock. Make them drive them.
